Ethan Leaving the Nest
A couple of hours prior to drop off- I am in the truck heading to take Ethan to college in Kentucky. Last night, I couldn’t sleep. All I could think about is how it felt like I had just brought him home from the hospital. My 24 year old self was so excited when I…

Wrestling Changed Ethan
Ethan in 8th grade. Placed 3rd at a tournament. Ethan placed 3rd at Districts. When Ethan was in the 7th grade he asked me if he could wrestle. I instantly told him, “no”! I didn’t even have to think a second about it. Ethan was a very shy and timid child. He wasn’t rough or…

As Mom of a Child with Down Syndrome
Nothing better than when you get home from work and your little man gives you the best hug. I can’t believe I have been Oliver’s mom for seven years (8 in April). It is going by so fast. I would be lying if I said it has been easy. I will say that it has…

Being a Nurse
My first hospital job was in the emergency department. I learned so much! It was all about prioritizing and learning new skills. I met amazing people. I cried a ton!
